At a funeral, I noticed that some people did not participate in the Janaazah Salaat which was being performed in the Musjid.

Question

At a funeral, I noticed that some people did not participate in the Janaazah Salaat which was being performed in the Musjid. When asked for their reason, they said that they are Hanafis. Were they correct?

Answer

Yes, they were correct. Janaazah Salaat for Hanafis is not permissible in the Musjid. Neither the body nor the people should be in the Musjid. Even if the body is outside, the Janaazah Salaat may not be inside the Musjid.
